If gambling is allowed within a jurisdiction, it is governed by the state in which it is allowed.

There is no way around it.

As to your credibility and trustworthiness, I suggest you as Dr. Phil.

Someone from the US would not write the questions in this manner. Besides, online gambling is illegal in the US.

It is illegal anywhere in the US to run any sort of online gambling or lottery.
It is illegal for those in the US to participate in online gambling even on overseas sites.
It is illegal for financial institutions in the US to transfer funds to gambling sites.

This perhaps should answer whatever the OP is looking for.

I posted them like that because I asked earlier and got answer's that were in that format that were actually questions asking ME all of this.. so I didn't know so i changed the format in which they were asked as if I was asking them.

Lotto is a kind of Gambling. So it depends on the country you are from. So answer these question and you can find the answer yourself:

1.Is Gambling allowed over there?

2. What are the Cyber Laws (Internet) in your country.

3. Even if gambling is allowed, is it allowed to be operated by private people or the holding on gambling and all those stuffs in the hand of govt.

4. What are the Tax laws related to gambling

5. What kind of investment do you have?

6. What is your credential

7. Who is your guarantor, what is the credential of the company that is your guarantor.

8. But most importantly for some one to invest money with you over the internet they have to trust you, so how are you willing to give that trust. there should be some big name associated with you.
Some help that was....

Anyway...thank you a lot. Do you know where online gambling is LEGAL?

I might move just to do it some day.

and thanks everyone for the responses
